In Loving Memory

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved father, husband, grandfather, and friend, who passed away at the age of 78.

He was a devoted husband who deeply loved his wife and found joy in sharing life's simple moments with her. He was a proud father to his three sons, cherished his daughters-in-law as part of the family, and adored his two grandchildren. His faithful dog, Lady, was never far from his side and brought him endless companionship.

He found happiness in the outdoors, whether he was fishing, tending to his garden, working in his yard, or simply "piddling" around the house. If the oldies were playing, there was a good chance he was outside enjoying the day. He was happiest when surrounded by nature, family, and friends.

Known as a true social butterfly, he never met a stranger. He loved good conversation, a cold beer or a glass of scotch, and the company of those he cared about. His home was the heart of countless holiday celebrations, and he wanted nothing more than to have his family gathered together under one roof. If plans didn't quite go the way he envisioned, he wasn't shy about letting everyone know—perhaps that was the Greek in him. But beneath that spirited nature was a man with an incredibly kind and generous heart whose love for his family was unmistakable.

His legacy is one of love, laughter, tradition, and togetherness. He taught us the importance of family, the value of hard work, and the joy of sharing life's moments with those we love.

He leaves behind his loving wife, his three sons, daughters-in-law, two grandchildren, faithful companion Lady, extended family, and many dear friends who will forever treasure the memories they shared with him.

Though our hearts are broken, we find comfort in remembering the countless stories, holidays, laughter, and love that filled our lives because of him. His presence will be deeply missed, but his spirit will live on in the traditions he created, the gardens he tended, the music he loved, and the family he cherished above all else.

May he rest in peace, knowing he was deeply loved and will never be forgotten.

Chris was predeceased by his brothers: Nick and Harry Frangos.

He is survived by his loving wife, Sarah Jane Frangos; sons: Michael (Tara) Frangos, Dennis (Lindsey) Frangos and Jimmy (Tracy) Frangos; grandchildren: Landon, Julia and Wyatt; sister-in-law, Marv Frangos; niece, Rachel Pullham and a host of extended family and friends.
